Here's the next episode! Enjoy!
*WARNING: This'll be a two-parter and possibly the next episode as well. Just saying!*
Late at night, a crystal-like barrier covered the entire Kuoh campus. "The school is now covered with this barrier," Sora stated. It was shown that he and his entire peerage were using their magic to keep the barrier around the campus. "If nothing drastic happens, it should be able to keep the damage away from the outside."
Richard smiled at him and nodded. "Thanks, Sora. That should help," he replied. He was with his own peerage, looking up at Sora's peerage from the ground.
"This is only if the conditions remain the same, however."
"Correct."
Behind Richard's peerage, Tsutomu appeared from a magic circle. Issei was the first to notice him, looking back at him and asking, "Where's Irving, Vice President?"
He walked towards his peerage with a serious look on his face and replied, "His condition is not life-threatening, which wouldn't be possible if it weren't for Argento-san's treatment."
The blonde-haired guy smiled and sighed in relief. "Thank goodness," he said.
Despite being relieved about that as well, Issei still kept a serious face. "What about Xenos? Where did he go?"
"Nothing from Kiba either, yeah?" Saji asked her.
The female pervert shook her head. "No. We haven't been able to contact her, but I hope she's safe."
"I believe so too," Kabu added as he nodded at her.
As the wind blew, the bottom of Sora's shirt flew up, revealing the top of his yellow underwear. "I will try my best to keep the barrier up, but I may not prevent the school from collapsing," he stated before sighing. "As unbearable as it is."
"I will not let that happen," Richard said in a serious tone.
Sora's eyes looked back at his friend. "Richard, it's not too late to contact your sister now..."
He smirked and shook his head. "I don't see you contacting your big brother."
"Right, because my family is..." he mumbled before continuing clearly, "Your older sister loves you, doesn't she? Sirzeca would be willing to help you out." Richard's smirk disappeared. He wasn't wrong, but he wanted to handle this by himsel-
"I've already contacted Sirzeca," Akihiko stated in a serious tone. That surprised the red-haired man.
"Akihiko! Why did you contact her on your own?!" he exclaimed.
The dark-haired man's face was completely serious. "Richard, I understand that you don't want to be a bother to Sirzeca, but our enemy here is high-ranked fallen angel. She is not someone you can take on your own." The red-haired male clenched his fists. What he said was true, but still...
Akihiko's face then turned reassuring with a smile as he said, "Why don't we have the Devil King help with this?" Richard sighed. He decided that it was inevitable, so he nodded at him, making his smile widen and his eyes closed. "Thank you for understanding, President~. Sirzeca's forces will arrive in one hour~."
Richard nervously smiled at him. "Jeez, I just can't win against you, can I?" He then turned to the barrier, crossing his arms and smiling confidently. "Just in one hour?" He was thinking of something the peerage could do while waiting...
Episode 5: Decisive Battle at Kuoh Academy!-Part 1
Inside of the school's main lobby, Richard and his entire peerage walked across it. "Isa, I'll have you on support," the red-haired man said to Issei.
"Support?" she asked.
"I want you to use your abilities to transfer your powers to others to raise their powers."
That didn't sound like a bad idea, so she nodded with a smile. "Alright! I'll get on it!"
He then turned to Akihiko and Kabu and said to them quietly, "We'll need to stall Isa before she can transfer her power to anybody."
The raven-haired male chuckled and replied, "Alright, President."
"Yes, President," the white-haired shouta replied.
Richard nodded and said, "Isa."
"Y-yes?" she replied.
He then looked back at her. "We're all counting on you."
It was a bit of pressure to hear that, but she was willing to do it. She nodded again and replied, "Yes, sir!"
Outside, Valerie was still working on summoning something through the golden magic circle, her arms still raised as beams of gold were shooting up into the air and into another golden magic circle in the sky. Her grin was wide and creepy.
"We'll need the offensive for this battle," he announced to everybody. "We have to get into the school and prevent Kokabiel from using her power. Unlike the fight with Risa, our lives will be at risk this time. But I will not allow us to die." He then smiled. "My dear servants, let us survive so we can go to school together again!" He extended his arm out in front of himself.
"Yes, President!" replied everybody else, feeling confident in Richard's scheme.
Issei took a deep breath and whispered, "Promotion...Queen!" She then felt great power course through her body as an imaginary Queen piece dissolved into her.
The peerage finally got outside and saw the golden magic circle in the sky. Asher's eyes widened. "What in the world is that?" he asked.
"It seems as though the four Excaliburs form as one," stated a familiar low feminine voice. "It seems like something I can think of." Everyone tensed and looked up, seeing no other than Kokabiel sitting on a floating throne.
"Kokabiel!" Richard exclaimed.
The female fallen angel chuckled, resting her cheek on her fist and asking, "So where is Sirzeca? Or is Seranfall coming?"
The crimson-haired man scoffed and answered, "We're here in their place." The woman then snapped her fingers, a large golden power created from it. The looks of that caused the entire peerage to throw themselves in front of their master to protect him.
"President!" shouted Issei. It turned out she formed a light lance and threw it to the school's gymnasium, completely obliterating it. The force was strong enough to blow the peerage back. Everyone looked at the rubble of the gym in shock. "Oh no...the gym is..." Issei began to feel terrified.
"This is getting boring," Kokabiel said, sounding bored. "Oh well. A little diversion shouldn't hurt." The light lance disappeared.
"I-it can't be..."
"Are you becoming scared, partner?" Benyw asked suddenly, the female pervert's left hand having a glowing green circle in the middle.
She brought that hand up and answered, "Look at the size of that light lance! It also destroyed the entire gym! It's like it's from a different dimension or something!"
"Well, yeah, of course it is. We're talking about the woman that survived fighting with God and the Devil King."
That shocked Issei even more, her muttering, "Can we beat a woman like that?"
"When it comes down to it, I can beat her if you let me make a large portion of your body be dragon."
She smiled at that. It sounded like a good idea. "Most of me will be dragon, huh?" She then looked up at the raven-haired woman. "So what level is she at?"
"I suppose since you've all made it this far, I'll let you play with my pet," Kokabiel stated before a large bolt of lightning crashed down on the ground. It created a hole and a magic circle, summoning a beast out of fire. Out of the fire came out a large dog the size of a building with three heads and red eyes.
Richard gasped at the sight, his eyes widening. "Cerberus?!" he exclaimed.
"Ceberus?!" asked a frightened Issei.
"Living at the gates of the Underworld, this is the Watchdog of Hades."
Asher looked the most terrified at the fire-breathing dog, muttering, "The Watchdog...of Hades...?"
"Bringing that to the human world, it's..." Richard muttered before regaining his composure. "Akihiko, Kabu, let's go!"
"Yes!" both of them shouted as they all lunged to it, their bat wings out.
"Isa! Use your Sacred Gear to enhance our powers!" shouted the red-haired male.
Without hesitation, she shouted back, "Yes, President!" She then lunged her arm out and shouted, "Boosted Gear!" Her gauntlet, bow, and arrow then appeared, shouting, "Boost!"
Akihiko's clothes disappeared, revealing his naked body for a few seconds before his shrine uniform appeared on him. All the guys appeared above Cerberus, ready to fight it. Issei commanded the former priest, "Asher-kun, get back!"
He nodded at her and said, "Okay." He then walked behind her.
She smiled confidently and said to him, "No worries. President and the other will handle that thing!" He hoped she was right, because he wondered if something might go wrong...
The three-headed canine spouted fire at the men. The Crimson-Haired Ruin Prince dodged them while Akihiko used a power to freeze the fire. It was frozen stiff and broke. He then got out of the way as Richard shot his Crimson Ruin power to it, knocking it back. However, it got up on its feet and ran to them. Kabu did a front flip towards it, the top of his shirt flying to reveal the top of his underwear and his small bulge bouncing a little as he heel-kicked one of its heads.
Akihiko summoned thick bolts of lightning and yelled, "One more attack!" before shooting the lightning at it. The shouta gave another one of its heads another kick before the lightning electrocuted it. Suddenly, another Cerberus appeared, making the guys fight that as well as fighting the first.
Both Issei and Asher looked aghast at the sight. "Jeez, how many of them are there?!" the perverted girl exclaimed.
"Boost!" shouted her gauntlet as it glowed.
She sighed. "Still not enough power to transfer to them..." She clenched her fists as she thought, Damn it...if I were stronger, I'd enhance their powers in an instant! She looked down in shame. But I'm not... Her train of thought came to a halt as Asher gasped loudly, making her look back and see yet ANOTHER Cerberus behind them. Both looked terrified at the sight of it so close to them. It spouted out fire at them, making Issei grab Asher's hand and run away from it, barely dodging it. Both of them stopped and looked up, Issei clenching her teeth and pointing her arrow at it. "Another one?!"
"Boost!" shouted her gauntlet again. She looked down at it.
"If I attack or get attacked, then the multiplier will reset..." It was much to her dismay as she muttered, "Damn it!" She then turned to the former priest and demanded, "Asher-kun, run! I'll act as bait to draw its attention!" Before he could even rebut her statement, she ran to it, making him scared for her.
"Wait, Issei-san!" he shouted at her gravely.
The Cerberus tried to rip her apart with its claws, but she dodged the paw as it came, jumping over it. It then leaped up and was about to kill Issei. She still pointed her arrow at it and was about to shoot it when suddenly, a slash came out of nowhere and chopped one of its heads off. Issei's eyes widened as she looked up. A masculine figure with a large ax-like sword, a black unitard that hugged his butt tightly, and blue hair was the one responsible for the slash. That figure turned out to be Xenos. He looked back at her with his brownish-golden eyes and grinned, saying, "I've come to provide backup."
Surprised to see him, Issei exclaimed, "Xenos!" So he was fine. What about Yumi though? Xenos then sliced the creature in half as it died in a ball of flames, the female pervert looking awed at that.
While he was attacking one of the two Cerberus, Akihiko looked back and grinned. "Ah~, as expected of a Holy Sword that can do countless damage to evil things~," he commented.
Richard looked back too and smiled. "I didn't wish to need your help, but I'm glad you're here!" he added. Xenos just smirked confidently as he ran to the other Cerberus, slicing its head in half and making it scream. The large dog died in a ball of flames as well.
Issei was still awed at the sight of Xenos' swordsmanship, murmuring, "Amazing..." She suddenly noticed her gauntlet glowing for more than a second as well as her bow and arrow, making her look down at it. "Huh?"
"This is the sign that the multiplier reached to the appropriate level for fighting," informed Benyw.
She smiled, looking up at the last Cerberus. "How convenient," she stated.
"You and this Sacred Gear mature every day. It just made you desire into a reality."
She nodded, now feeling better and running closer to the flying men. "President! Akihiko-san! Here I come!" she shouted to them.
Both of them looked down at her and smiled in relief. "Isa," Richard said as he flew down to her to give her a better shot.
"Issei-chan~," said Akihiko as he followed suit.
The perverted girl then stopped and summoned two bows. "Boosted Gear, Gift!" she shouted as the arrows turned special and she shot them at the two men. The arrows absorbed into them, making them both blush and moan as the power seeped into their bloodstreams. Akihiko...smiled while doing that. Issei panted, feeling a bit weaker than before. Despite that, she thought it was worth it.
Xenos saw the whole thing and looked surprised. He then looked at her and asked, "You can do that too, Hyoudou Issei?" She nodded at him.
"Now we can beat her," Richard said with his usual confidence.
"Of course we can~," added Akihiko.
The red-haired male turned to the raven-haired one. "Akihiko."
He nodded as he raised his hand up in the air and shouted, "Ring out, my lightning!" A large yellow magic circle appeared, a thick beam of lightning crashing upon it. Kabu carried the beast like it was nothing and brought it down, wrestler-style. As it yelped in pain, Richard summoned his power and tried powering it up. The Cerberus then spotted Asher and ran to him, making him freeze in horror since there was nothing he could do to stop it.
In horror, Issei yelled, "ASHER-KUN!" He was about ready to run away from it, screaming. But then suddenly, a plethora of sword broke out of the ground and stabbed it multiple times, rising it up from the ground as it howled in pain. It turned out that Yumi was there, landing in front of Asher with a sword in her hand.
Pleased to see her again, Richard smiled and murmured, "Yumi!"
Asher sighed in relief and looked at her, saying, "Kiba-san! I'm glad you're here!" The blonde-haired girl smiled at the two happily, feeling glad that they and the rest of the peerage were alright.
The crimson-haired man turned to his right-hand man and shouted, "Akihiko!"
"Yes, President~!" he replied as he shot the lightning from his fingers and Richard pushing the magic circle with his power in it. The two crashed to each other and hit the beast with immense power. It screamed as loud as it could at the pain that gave it as it was completely obliterated.
Looking at Yumi, Issei ran to her happily, shouting, "That was awesome, Kiba!" The blonde-haired beauty looked at her with a modest smile on her face.
"Well, that wasn't too bad," Kokabiel commented, ruining the happy moment of victory and getting Richard's attention. He looked at her angrily and began acting impulsively, summoning his Ruin power again.
"Eat this!" he yelled at her as he shot the beam of Crimson ruin at her, his bulge bouncing a little.
Issei's eyes widened at the size of it. "That is so huge!" she exclaimed.
The Cadre-level fallen angel, however, chuckled as she stopped the Ruin and pushed it back to him. Shocked, he dodged it and it landed on the ground, creating a massive hole on the ground. He looked down in horror and awe. Had he not dodged...
"Now I see," continued the fallen angel as she stood up from her floating throne. "You become much more stronger with the power of the Red Dragon Empress." She laughed. "How interesting is that?" Richard clicked his tongue at her, feeling more and more enraged.
Outside of the campus, the Sitri peerage tried their best to hold the barrier while the battling was going on, their bodies tensing more as they put more effort into keeping it up.
"It is complete!" shouted Valerie as the magic circle glowed and created a new sword made of gold. Everyone looked and saw that, their pupils shrinking.
"No!" yelled Yumi. Xenos clenched his teeth.
The crazed old woman laughed. "With this now, I can finally..."
Way out into the town, a feminine figure with a sleeveless leather jacket, tight latex pants, and long silver hair saw not only the barrier, but the golden beam from a distance. Her icy-blue eyes narrowed at the sight of it.
Eye Catch #37: Tsutomu is sitting on the checkered floor with arms supporting him up and his legs spread, showing off his bulge under his light-blue briefs and the underside of his butt cheeks. His shirt was opened up, revealing his sculpted chest. He still wore his black socks and brown loafers as well as his glasses. He was grinning.
Stopping here. What do you think so far?
I couldn't think up of a good name for Male!Serafall, so I had to add an "n" in there because it sounds masculine enough.
Review, follow, favorite, and I'll see you in the next chapter! :D
